Episode Report Card Daniel: B- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Dan the Caucasian Asian
By Daniel | Season 11 | Episode 6 | Aired on 04.16.2013
Ramsay says his decision is Dan... but it's a back-in-line fakeout (Dan cackles, "Ha ha, that's right" instead of NOT being cocky for two seconds). Anthony in particular seems distressed by this. Ramsay says he's staying because, as shown tonight, he can fucking cook. So who is leaving? Jessica. "I'm not feeling you. I haven't got any more patience," says Ramsay, as he takes her jacket.
Jessica, outside, tells us she tried to come across as confident and strong, and it got mistaken for lack of passion. It's never that they can't cook, is it? She acknowledges she might not have put up enough fight for Ramsay to believe in her. Anthony points out to us that it's not a question of Dan being able to cook, because they can all cook. "There's going to be no living with this kid after this," he says. Ha! Sure enough, Dan has apparently decided to adopt a me-first, team-last philosophy. Wait, he thought he was being a good teammate until now? Susan plans to fight and win.
Ramsay says that when Jessica arrived, he had high hopes for her. You ... did? More than any other contestant? "Unfortunately, she let us both down." Hell, I'm just happy we ended an episode with an elimination for once.
Daniel is a writer in Newfoundland with a wife and a daughter. Clearly, next episode needs to have a literal death match between Anthony and Dan. On this show, that's as rare as unicorns. Follow him on Twitter (@DanMacEachern) or email him at danieljdaniel@gmail.com.
